Yes, our tree is already up 🎄When Maizah saw the Hallmark Keepsake Ornament from @hallmarkstores, she was ready for Christmas! It’s her first time decorating the tree with me so I wanted to make sure she felt like she had a huge part in making Christmas special for our family. And she absolutely did. #CareEnough#ad

Finally got to play with my @fentybeauty goodies and that #stunna Lip Paint is not a game. And that Trophy Wife highlighter is worth the hype. I’m wearing the Pro Filt’r foundation in 350. No filter, no FaceTune. Just flash. This is literally what it makes your skin look like. Hair: @getglamdhair

Joining @att’s #itcanwait campaign this month & taking part in their #21daychallenge of not using my smartphone in the car while driving. Didn’t know how it would play out for me, but I’ve been talking to Maizah more and being a lot more present in my surroundings and conversations with her. And when she’s not with me, I’m belting out Christmas songs on the radio only proving that I’m the best singer behind a steering wheel. No, really. 😂 If you’re up for the challenge, check out the campaign & join me for the challenge this month by clicking the link in bio. Worth it! #ad

It’s #nationalcookieday so tonight I’m going to get started on some Christmas cookies - frosted sugar cookies & peanut butter blossom cookies. As I get older, I love a good sugar cookie (but chocolate chip reigns supreme at our house with Hubs and Maizah)! What’s your go to cookie for the holidays? 📸: Hubs

This look is now on the blog and while these shoes are sold out, I found a similar pair of shoes for less than $60! The perfect little gift for yourself for making it thru 2017 😊🙏🏽 http://liketk.it/2tIKX #liketkit@liketoknow.it 📸: @christopherjamarpayne

It’s our last year as a family of three & I wanted to make sure Maizah felt loved and involved as we decorated our tree this holiday. She loves Santa, so putting our this Hallmark Keepsake Ornament from @hallmarkstores on the tree made her feel so special. It made me & Hubs feel good that Santa looked like us 🎅🏿Click the link in my bio to see other amazing ornaments. #ad#CareEnough

I have a confession: I’m not lifting a finger this Thanksgiving since we’re traveling & I’m hosting Christmas. In fact, happily staying in and enjoying #MyThanksgivingEve watching movies, sitting on the couch eating @PizzaHut & drinking @DrPepper with the fam. These last few weeks have been SO hectic, so I’m stoked to just relax. If you’re open enough to admit you’re laying low for Thanksgiving Eve as well, tag @PizzaHut and @DrPepper using the #MyThanksgivingEve hashtag in the comment below for the chance to win free pizza. (Besides, who wants to cook the day before Thanksgiving?!) #ad

Nothing like a good coat to make you feel invincible when this cold weather hits. This is still one of my favorite buys from last season. Found some affordable dupes for you guys. Like this photo + sign up for @liketoknow.it to check out 7 plaid coats (all under $150!) that’ll turn heads this season. http://liketk.it/2ttRB #liketkit#ltkunder150#ltkunder100

Used to hate Mondays. That’s because I was misusing them. Used to use them to complain how short the weekend was and dread my work week. Now, I use them to win the week. I use it to set the tone, make a plan and put the week’s tasks in order. Then I get to work. The day itself didn’t change. My perspective on it did. Mondays are now my favorite. And if I’m being honest - most productive. ✨💪🏽
